Question

Find the current if 55 C of charge pass a particular point in a circuit in 5 seconds.

Answer 1

Answer:

The current is 11 Amperes

Explanation:

Electric Current

The electric current is defined as a stream of charged particles that move through a conductive path.

The current intensity can be calculated as:

$\displaystyle I=\frac{Q}{t}$

Where:

Q = Electric charge

t   = Time taken by the charge to move through the conductor

The current intensity is often measured in Amperes.

The charge passing through a point in a circuit is Q= 55 c during t=5 seconds, thus the current intensity is:

$\displaystyle I=\frac{55}{5}$

I = 11 Amp

The current is 11 Amperes
